Something funny just happened to me:

When I was on the log-in page, it was in Italian instead of English! XD

I wonder why this was the case, but it seemed amusing to me despite something similar having happened before (I also was greeted in Norwegian and Russian a few times).

Of cause, a different language would make sense if I logged in to the Japanese or German wikis, but here at the English community, it just seems plain funny to be greeted in a different language than English when logging in. (grins)

Anyways, I wanted to tell you, that I had a change of plans and decided to do the file lists for the Japanese and German KDZ Wikias first.

I decided to do this, as the two subsidiary wikis of KDZ Wikia are pretty small and mostly inactive due to our ongoing migration and I have read, that other people's wikis have been closed due to being small and very inactive, so I went and played safe.

Amusingly, I just started creating the lists for these two wikis, but they were done so fast! So they are good to go now. ;)

Now, I can fully focus on our English KDZ Wikia's file list and won't have to worry about the Japanese and German ones. ^^

As for the English KDZ Wikia, I am now at 612 of 2459 files, which equals 25 %.

This might be only a little jump from yesterday's progress, but the other two wikis combined had 45 files to be added to their file lists, which makes for an addition of 73 new entries to the total number of our file list entries! (cheerful smile)

This whole thing with the progress is also funny: It really depends on how the files are laid out and named over at our archive server, so sometimes, I can do a huge bunch of them pretty quickly (for example, I got through the intro screenshots of Battle Raiden pretty fast, because they were all in the same folder and named the same way as they are over here at the wiki), while for others, I need to search around a lot. (a good example are some images from the manga, which might have different names due to being from different sources - Azure, Goki or myself - or different points of time - where for example we didn't know the actual names or had badly translated ones from Baradise, where you get things like Shijura being called the "Game Over-Man", due to appearing in Battle Raiden's game over screen, or Chimaru being the "Vampire Man", due to Kanji having been impossible to translate back before I met Azure and our Japanese friends)

Also, the screenshots from the anime episodes are named after the date and time, they were created, but Zenki, Goki, Vasara and myself sorted them into appropriately named "Episode XX" folders (with XX standing for the episode number), so these are way less of a hassle. ;)

Huge walls of text, funny things and me helping out new wikians over at the FNaC wikis getting hold on "how to wiki" (explaining things like how to add images, tabbers and stuff) aside, my main focus is the file list.

Once the file list is done, my dad, Zenki and myself will keep working on getting the wiki farm structure going.

Also, we will soon celebrate Kishin Douji Zenki Wikia's third and it's subsidairies' first birthdays! (these are all set at the April 15!)

I don't know, if we will be already launching the new wiki farm and celebrate there or if we will be still around here at FANDOM by then, but either way, it's a huge milestone, as few wikis ever reach their third year without major loss of interest and Kishin Douji Zenki Wikia has grown to the point, where it has a stable base of 250 to 300 visitors every day, which makes me very happy and would certainly also make Mr. Kuroiwa proud! ^^

Once I am done helping out some newbies over at the FNAC Wikias, I'll keep working on our file list.

As usual, I'll also keep you up to date every once in awhile. ;)

Sorry for taking so long, that you got worried about this place being dead. ^^'

Zenki and myself were helping my parents, as my mom was working in the garden and needed some helping hands and my dad was (and still is) learning for an exam, that is very important for his job, so we had no time to answer or work on the migration.

Tomorrow, my dad will be attending the exam for his job and my mom, Zenki and myself are keeping our fingers crossed, that he'll pass the exam with flying colors! :)
